The International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) is initiated and organized by the International Mathematical Union and is held every four years. The first conference was held in Zurich, Switzerland in 1897. It has a history of more than 100 years. It is a global conference on mathematical science and is known as the Olympic Games in mathematics. ICM 2022 will take place between 6-14 July 2022.
